@Delectable Wine this is the Aperture Cellars Del Rio Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon.
Brand new release (3/6) and inaugural bottling from Aperture Cellars and Jesse Katz.
Super dark purple in appearance. A bit of iron on the nose with notes of black berries, cigar box and baking spices. Heavy tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Rich and voluptuous palate with baking spices, blueberries, cassis, anise and crushed gravel. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2036. (94+)
First time trying these Single Vineyard Cabernets by Jesse Katz and boy were we in for a treat. This is the inaugural bottling of their Del Rio Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon which is made up of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. If aged like the Oliver Ranch Vineyard then it is aged for 20 months in 70% new French oak barrels. This will only improve with age.
$$$ - Sample provided by the winery. Release price is $95.00.

Really nice. Should definitely decant for at least an hour, could easily use more. Great earth, solid acid that keeps it refreshing, and still surprisingly persistent tannins. Overall very nice. Had at Babbo. — 8 years ago

I got paired up with a Mezcal Wizzard in Cancun, this was one of her top picks - clear, measured smoke, light citrus, dried herb ... soulful. Tall glass with soda and wedge is the perfect drink for Clemson v Wake Forest for the ACC title. #GoTigers #BestMezcal — 7 years ago
